Decays the learning rate of each parameter group by gamma every
step_size epochs. Notice that such decay can happen simultaneously with
other changes to the learning rate from outside this scheduler. When
last_epoch=-1, sets initial lr as lr.
Args:
optimizer (Optimizer): Wrapped optimizer.
step_size (int): Period of learning rate decay.
gamma (float): Multiplicative factor of learning rate decay.
Default: 0.1.
last_epoch (int): The index of last epoch. Default: -1.
Example:
>>> # Assuming optimizer uses lr = 0.05 for all groups
>>> # lr = 0.05 if epoch < 30
>>> # lr = 0.005 if 30 <= epoch < 60
>>> # lr = 0.0005 if 60 <= epoch < 90
>>> # ...
>>> scheduler = StepLR(optimizer, step_size=30, gamma=0.1)
>>> for epoch in range(100):
>>> scheduler.step()
>>> train(...)
>>> validate(...)
